Where can I learn more about podcasting at IU?

On this page:

General information

For general information about podcasting, see What is podcasting? For information about using podcasting technology in the classroom, see the Teaching & Learning Technologies Centers (TLTC) iPod Resources page.

IU Podcast Portal

The Indiana University Podcast Portal is the central gateway for podcasts produced at IU. For more, see:

Note: For policy information on podcast content at Indiana University, refer to the University Information Policy Office (UIPO) University-wide IT Policy page. In particular, see Appropriate Use of Information Technology Resources.

iTunes U

IU has signed an agreement with Apple to make podcasts more readily available to students, faculty, and staff at IU. iTunes U provides access to university information and Oncourse CL course content directly through iTunes. For more, see What is iTunes U?

Note: Indiana University has launched a public iTunes U site in the iTunes Store, but continues to offer iTunes U sites that require IU Network ID authentication (accessible via Oncourse CL or at http://itunes.iu.edu/). Content in the public iTunes U site is searchable by users worldwide via the iTunes Store and requires no authentication. To make your podcast available to the public, add the iTunes U tool to your Oncourse CL site, and then fill out and submit the iTunes U Request Form.
